As a child Lee loved riding on trains. Later in life he enjoyed having model trains and putting them around the Christmas tree. He collected anything to do with trains or anything with a train on it including wind chimes, clocks, and numerous other things. Lee Loved the fact that he was able to build his own home. He enjoyed playing music. He was very talented, and taught himself to play many instruments. Lee and Leah spent many of their retirement years traveling together. They visited every state more than once, and also traveled to Canada, Mexico and Europe. Lee wore a hat everywhere he went. He enjoyed being in the outdoors with his family camping and fishing. He was also an avid hunter and loved pine nut hunting. But what he enjoyed the most was spending time with his family and living his life to the fullest.

He was preceded in death by his wife, Leah; parents; four brothers; and three sisters.
